Dagger Of Kamui

Beautifully animated ninja action drama!

On the even of the Meiji restoration, as a slumbering Japan awakens and turns its eyes westward, an innkeeper finds a baby named Jiro in a drifting boat; his only companion a glittering blade, the Dagger of Kamui. When Jiro is thirteen, his adoptive family is murdered and Jiro is blamed, only to be rescued by Tenkai, a priest.

Tenkai tells Jiro that the murderer is actually a mysterious one-armed Ninja, and helps Jiro to track the Ninja down and use the Dagger to exact revenge. Taking Jiro under his wing, Tenkai trains Jiro in his own school of the Ninja tradition.

Years later, acting on a tip from Tenkai, Jiro tracks down his real mother, only to learn that Tenkai had tasked his father with finding a clue to the lost treasure of Captain Kidd. With the treasure in hand, the Shogun will be able to retain control, and Japan will once again isolate itself from the world. However, his father fell in love, abandoned the search, and had a child - and for this failure, Tenkai exacted a terrible revenge.

Now the chase begins, as Jiro, with only the Dagger of Kamui to help him, searches for the great treasure, a search that will take him all the way to America, with Tenkai's minions always close behind.

If Jiro can find the treasure and return to Japan, then perhaps he can exact his revenge and thrust the Dagger of Kamui into Tenkai's black heart!
